Mommy Daddy and Paul
No words mean more
Than these simple three
They strike me to the core
Him, and you and me
They used to tell of all
That mattered in my life
Not big or fat or tall
Now cut me like a knife
Everywhere we went
Repeat them all the day
As if that they were sent
Upon a sunbeam ray
Shout out the love lost bond
Of our tiny family
Never needing to respond
This once eternity
The Window
Through the window
I watch you both on the wet grass
Legs tan and strong
taste of my addiction
our beautiful boy
tears dripping with the rain
a last glance
of the magic that was
filling the air
now already gone
as if the man in the window
never existed.
Perfect Harry Dances
With his glasses cap and gown
Prancing all around the town
Our perfect Harry dances
We made him you and I
The Ecstasy of our lives
Our perfect Harry dances
His grace comes from high above
A gift descended from the dove
Our perfect Harry Dances
We laugh at each remark
An angel in the dark
Our perfect Harry dances
His life a spinning top
No force on earth can stop
Our perfect Harry dances
Let our love combine once more
Prepare him for what’s in store
Our perfect Harry dances
Our Boy
So like a mirror he is
Like the fragile glass
That I once was
The promise lost
The wish unanswered
Shelter him Lord
From the broken mirror
Stave the bitter tear
Shield him from the memory
Of losing more
Than just of flesh and bone
